Backin February Hernandez, his brother and Lopez went to a Greenfield bridge to seethe flood swollen Salinas river. As the three watched the murky waters analleged drunk driver plowed through a barricade, hit the three men knockingthem into the raging river.

The nephews made it out, but Lopez didn’t.

“The day that accident happened the river was in some parts wider than a milenow today the river is less than 20 feet wide in some spots we have a lot ofarea we need to cover and we don't have enough people to check everywhere,”said Hernandez.

Wednesday the family brought in a special search team from Montana to help lookfor Lopez's body.

“They brought a cadaver dog that's specialized to be on the river and they'researching the river bed doing the best they can for us they've done tremendousjob covered almost 20 miles in two days on the river,” said Hernandez.

But the search team leaves Sunday so the family is now organizing a searchparty to look for Lopez on the weekends beginning this Saturday.

They've setup a facebook page "Help bring Julian home"hoping to attract an army of volunteers to comb the Salinas river bed.

There's a lot of ground to cover and it won't be easy.

“There's trees and branches and bamboo. Some spots a little bit ofquicksand but we have to keep looking and we're going to keep looking until wefind him hopefully we get closure soon,” said Hernandez.

The family of Julian Lopez has also set up a Gofundme account called “DUIvictims support fund” to help with medical bills and search efforts.
